Cask, The Barge, Gillingham. Like Flagship, this brewery only uses Maris Otter barley from Warminster Maltings. And like Flagship, the result is an over malty sweetness. A very unbalanced and quite awful beer. There is huge sulphur on the nose - a massive and continuous belch of rotten eggs. If they intended to re-create a Burton beer they seriously overdid the calcium sulphate. The sweet malt tastes caramelised, though not by direct fire, but probably by handfuls of brown sugar. There is a vague finish, slightly cloying. A confused and poorly made beer.

Cask Handpump at the Ship & Mitre, Liverpool 08/04/2004 Golden coloured and hoppy. Slightly dry crisp malt finish.
